           <div class="listing_description">
               GAO's primary products are reports, often called "blue books," and testimony before  Congress. Most reports are done at the request of members of Congress--often committee  chairpersons and ranking minority members. The agency also responds, whenever possible,  to requests from individual members. For example, a senator might ask GAO to examine  fraud in the Food Stamp Program. Or a House committee might request a study of a weapon  system that is over budget and behind schedule. Other program reviews are required by  law or are self-initiated under the agency's own authority.<span class="footnote"> Document description from <a href="http://www.gao.gov/about/products/about-gao-reports.html"> GAO website</a>.</span>
